I cannot teach you
violence, as I do not
myself believe in it.
I can only teach you
not to bow your heads
before any one, even
at the cost of your life.

Mahatma Gandhi, 20th century

Meadows of gold dust. The silver
currents of the Connecticut fan
and meander in bland pleatings under/ river-verge farms where rye-heads whiten.
All's polished to a dull luster

wind bares a flintier landscape
